Microsoft has added a new feature called 'Review Summaries' feature to its popular Chromium-based Edge browser. The new AI-powered tool can automatically generate product review summaries for a particular product available on the internet. According to a recent blog post shared by Microsoft, Edge users can now click on the Copilot icon on the top right of the screen and ask the AI-powered chatbot to offer a summary of what people think about a particular product. While it may not always be accurate, it can help users save time by giving them an idea of whether a product they are planning to buy is worth their money by summarising its pros and cons. Microsoft also said that the 'Edge Secure Network', which was earlier limited to the Edge Insiders Program is now available to everyone. To give you a quick recap, Edge Secure Network makes use of a VPN to prevent malicious parties from learning about sensitive information when making purchases online and filling out forms. The company is also bringing Copilot to Microsoft Shopping, a feature that lets users look up gift ideas or search for a particular product using images, similar to what Google offers with its Lens app. The new AI-powered shopping feature is available to everyone and can be accessed from any desktop browser, but the tech giant says users get the best experience when using Edge. Microsoft also said it plans to extend support for mobile browsers in the near future, but did not share any details about the same.
